Semi-retired. Lifelong member of @Conservatives, Royalist, animal lover, hater of junk food, I try always to be honest and tell it like it is. All views my own.
I was surprised when Jeremy Clarkson texted me on Boxing Day to say how much he liked my @paddypower ad urging men to get tested for prostate cancer. Now I understand.
I wish my old sparring partner all the best with his treatment. Guys, have a PSA test, it may save your life.
Thoughts from a Labour MP:
“We have to face up to the fact every single one of them is fucking useless. Andy’s strategy has been a disaster. Angela bottled it. Ed clearly a hiding to nothing. Wes AWOL. God knows what Catherine West is doing. Not quite sure how we ended up here.”
Those who have served in the police will be familiar with the occasional lightweight who would never volunteer, keep a low profile and turn up at scenes just as the combatants were being loaded into the van.
And now that spirit is embodied by our Prime Minister.
Already enshrined as a member of Genesis, Phil Collins is nominated for the first time as a solo artist as part of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Class of 2026.
If selected, Collins will join Ringo Starr, Dave Grohl, and Matt Cameron as the only drummers to have been inducted twice.
Farmers are saying one thing: reverse this farm tax, or it’s the end of British farming as we know it, and the end of thousands of jobs and generations of knowledge. Help us stop Labour’s callous decision: https://t.co/UhUrGihxGV
It was a pleasure to chat to @JeremyClarkson today about the farmers’ rally and the terrible impact Labour’s budget will have on our rural communities.
Jeremy and I agree we cannot allow the government to get away with it.
